The target brand mop is awful. I had it for 2 weeks and it broke and the reviews on the app also reflect that ☹️ I just bought O-Cedar and it has mixed reviews but we’ll see

He had them refurbished by Limmer one time within the last 10 years.

I thought so but on farther investigation I was wrong. I am not unhappy about this, rather like the whole Moët thing it just twists my mind up.

Really? I'm quite certain it's been both. I'm pretty sure there was even a contract of "thinking hoopy thoughts" on at least one occasion.

Ugh this kills me inside but hoopy is a noun not an adjective.

Not sure if this is important to you but: Miyabi knives are made by the company that makes Henckels.

In fairness, I think it's kind of hard to "kill" an artificial tree. My grandparents had there's for like 30 years, and then gave it away to my aunt Because it was getting too large for them.
The tree my parents had was the same for at least 15 years. Maybe more. Idk what happened to it after we moved out of my childhood home.
The tree I have? It's prelit, so I don't imagine the lights will work for nearly that long, but you cut out the topical lights and wires and you still got a tree. Actually, I bought an identical tree 2 years ago and this year it only had like 25% of it working. The company I bought it from had a 3 year warranty so I got a new one this year free of charge, and donated the old one to my mom with the lights cut off.

How do they compare to other high end brands? I have one and love it but they are very expensive!

I don't know that it's specifically BIFL, but I like my Oxo one. It's punched metal instead of a wire mesh.

Something that can still be bought also should be the main thing.
Seems like this sub needs a name change sometimes, like "bought it for life" or even "inherited it for life".
But main sad reason for that is that the companies making those products stopped making them as good or got bought out.
